there is a sword stuck through me thats dragging me down
meteors coming to burn you to the ground
they are the fucking fury from on high
setting fire to the sky
here here comes this rising tide
so come on

put on your war paint

captch cards and maxed swords and good advice
all thats left of my timeline

so we can take the world back from jack noirs attack
one dead dave at a time we will take it back
you know time crawls on when youre waiting for your doom to start
so just pretend you arent falling apart

hey doomed daves doesnt it feel
like our time is running out
even if i choose
just the right path
will we all die
in the bloodbath

wearing the shades john gave to me
just cause they remind me who i came back to see
i may have failed you
as a time knight
but ill save you
as a birdsprite

bring home the boonbucks scrap with imps built like tanks
get rich
and make a killing on the lohac banks
because your consorts have a stock exchange
and you have fucking time hax
investment scams are the way to pass

so we can take the world back from bec noirs attack
one dead dave at a time we will take it back
you know time crawls on when youre waiting for your doom to start
so just pretend you arent falling apart

hey doomed daves doesnt it feel
like our time is running out
even if i choose
just the right path
will we all die
in the bloodbath

wearing the shades john gave to me
just cause they remind me who i came back to see
i may have failed you
as a time knight
but ill save you
as a birdsprite

put on your war paint

my lifes for trade
for johns and for jades
i swear this time
my friends wont die

my lifes for trade
for johns and for jades
i swear this time
my friends wont die

my lifes for trade
for johns and for jades
i swear this time
my friends wont die

my lifes for trade
for johns and for jades
i swear this time
my friends wont die

heyyy

doomed daves doesnt it feel
like our time is running out
even if i choose
just the right path
will we all die
in the bloodbath

wearing the shades john gave to me
just to remind me who i came back to see
i may have failed you
as a time knight
but ill save you
as a birdsprite

hey doomed daves doesnt it feel
like our time is running out
i promise ill choose
just the best way
so you dont waste
your last few days

put on your war paint

Please excuse the faint vocals from the original underneath this recording; there is no karaoke track that I can find for The Phoenix, so I had to fudge it. ^_^;

unicorn6110 (4 years ago)This is fantastic! I love the rewritten lyrics a LOT (like, a lot-a lot -- they really fit for Davesprite) and your vocals were pretty awesome too, especially when you knew you had to cover up the Patrick Stump in the background. Thanks for sharing and I can't wait to see what comes out next!

unicorn6110 (4 years ago)Also, if you weren't aware, this is one of the faster versions of the song. The original is at a much more easily singable pace, if that's what you were looking for, and it wouldn't take away from the energy and power of the song, really, if you wanted to try and find the other one. However, being familiar with the version myself, it IS a lot more fun to dance around to this way, so I can see why you probably intended to use this one! I still love the song either way, and again, great job. (â—¡â€¿â—¡âœ¿)

scientificSpeculator (4 years ago)Thanks unicorn! I know there's a slower version but I deliberately used the faster one because I love it.
